First 1000 days

The first 1000 days is a concept in child development that public health interventions which support children during their first 1000 days of life are especially effective.

Good nutrition at this time affects many health outcomes.[1][2][3][4] There are various risk factors in the first 1000 days which, if present, are predictors of later obesity.[5][6][7]

Children establish many of their lifetime epigenetic characteristics in their first 1000 days.[8]

There are other health recommendations for what to do after the first 1000 days.[9]
